And gently he reused her:
Rise. lady! Prepare!

And strange to thine ear;
Come. rouse thou mp quickly,
Thy knight tarrics near
Rise. lady! APPEAR"

The moon shines above,
Yet trust not securely

Far, far from my presence

And sadly rcpining;

Aud her heart with JOY trembling,
She rushed 10 the sight

committing an assault upon Miss Bradford,
daughter OF Mr.. John Bradford, who lives
between here and Berlin. Bodley attended a
picnic on Saturday last, where he met the young
lady and proposed to take her to another picnic,

stead OF going to this place he took her TO q
colored camp-meeting, where they stayed until
late. Upon returning, Bodley drove out OF his
route and pretended to be lost In the
woods. Yesterday morning Miss Bradfords
friends, becoming alarmed by her absence,
started to search for her. About O'Clock
two young men heard cries in the woods OF the
young lady begging to be let alone, and entreat-
ing Bodley to take her home. They hurried TO the
place and at once rescued the GIRL and admins
tered a terrible beating to Bodiey and left him.
Officer Scott In the meantime had heard OF the
case, and started In pursuit. He found Bodley at
the depot in Berlin, about to take the train, and
arrested him. Bodley is badly battered up from
the beating he received at the hands OF the young
men. Miss Bradford is highly respectable young
lady. and her friends are greatly incenSed at the
outrage.

THE CASE OF DIR. CRAWFORD.
In the Police Court To-day.

AT hall past two O'Clock this afternoon there was
oustfe and buzz in the Police Court. Crowds OF
ioiterers who had been waiting outside came into
court and ranged themselves about the room.
The occasion for the hustle was that the case OF
Dr. Willard H. Crawford, the navy surgeon ar
rested on charge OF fornicatiou with Eva White,
young gtrl, was called up at that hour. Dr.
Moore. :
Judge Harper inquired as to how far counsel ex-
the prosecuting Officer said he had but three wit
neSses more and hoped to be able 70 finfsh In an
ne yaage Harper expressed desire to adjourn
Detective Ran was recalled to the stand by Mt.
Lpscomb
THE LETTER THAT WAS PRODUCED SATURDAY.
Mr. Lpscomb had the letter that was produced
saturday but not read. He asked 10 have the wit
ness read the sentence he had read 10 Or. Craw-
Iord ana state the explanation given to him by
Or. Crawford OF the meaning OF the sentence.
MI. Moore objected. He argued that no ofrense
had been shown 10 have been committed and he
opJecteu 10 anything AXE confession being intro
duced
WHAT Mr.. LIPSCoMB CLAIMS.
Mr.. Lipscomb contended that he did not propose
to introduce this as a confession. He had shown
familiarity; that the girl had been seen sitting on
defendants lap: that there had been opportunity
70 commit the crime, and that there had been
fondness one for the other lie proposed To
show that the girl had spent all
defendants control These were all circumstances
which he proposed to follow up with this letter
beginning with terms OF endearnent my Darling
Eva" and showing more plainly the relations be-
tween the couple. Ii the defense considered the
letter concession, then the defendant had con-
vtcted himself.
WHAT Mr.. MOORE CLAIMS.
Mr.. Moore said that the defendant had made no
confession, and would make none. as there was no
guilt to confess He argued at length in support OF
his objection. He ridiculed the idea that the use
or "endeartng terms proved an act OF fornication.
He submitted that even the counsel for the prose-
cutlon stood not guiltlesS OF having addressed
deartng terms TO members OF the opposite sex,
but that showed nothing. He held that to prove
charge of fornication the act itself must DE
proved. Then 1t would be proper to prove a con-
versation between an officer and the defendant.
MI. Lpscomb said, In reply TO MIR. Moores argu-
ment that the act must be proved, that 1t was not
necessary to prove The act by an eyewitness.
Mr.. Moore said he would SO contend, and pro-
ceeded to read authorities.
